  1. In the article, he jokes about playing in the AHL after the NHL is no longer an option, and frankly, I’d love to see it.
    Let the AHL sell some tickets and let Ovie school some youngsters and/or give them their big moment of outplaying (the 40-year-old version of) him. Please do this.

  2. Well for maybe the next 10ish years until Sergei is in high school. Miami born kid will more than likely come back here for a chance to play in NHL. He’s 6 now. Ilya is 4. They’ll stay in Russia but not for a crazy long time.

  3. Live in America as a retired hall of fame hockey player would be good.

    Live in Russia as a Icon would probably be better.

  4. How many of you instinctively read her statement in Russian woman’s accent?

  5. He’ll retire after he hits 1000 goals. Dude was 3rd in goals this season, 1 behind 2nd. Bert good chance he’d have won the Rocket if it wasn’t for the injury.
